Kangaroo Island in Style

This 2-day excursion to Kangaroo Island lets you experience one of Australia’s richest wildlife regions in comfort and style. Located just off the coast of South Australia, the Kangaroo Island is a hotbed of biodiversity and spectacular natural formations such as Admiral’s Arch. You’ll see kangaroos (of course!), tammar wallabies, and the famous sea lions of Seal Bay. Remarkable Rocks is another highlight, illustrating the island’s unique geology. Accommodation is at a local boutique hotel, with dinner, breakfast, admission fees, Adelaide transfers and touring all included.

Kangaroo Island Touring

Take a walk through Red Gum forest along the Cygnet River valley - seek out koalas sleeping in the forks of the trees. Travel through some of the best wool-producing areas on the Island to a conservation park on the north coast. Here you explore the habitat of Kangaroo Island kangaroos, tammar wallabies and the endangered glossy black cockatoo. Visit Stokes Bay where local holiday homes are clustered in a protected cove - one of the locals favourite beaches. Break for a delicious seafood barbecue lunch at a private bush lunch site - King George whiting, haloumi, grilled potatoes and a fresh garden salad served with a choice of local wines. At Seal Bay Conservation Park walk with your guide on a private interpretive tour of a colony of Australian sealions on a beautiful sandy beach. Watch pups nursing, or playing in the surf, see old bulls bearing the scars of territorial disputes and learn of their unique breeding biology.

Kangaroo Island Touring

Today you will visit Flinders Chase National Park. The park is a 74,000 hectare (190,000 acre) wilderness which covers the entire west end of the Island. Visit Rocky River Homestead - originally a small farm and now the Park headquarters. This park has a fascinating place in the history of wildlife and wilderness conservation and many tangible elements of this still remain. At Cape du Couedic on the south-west tip visit a fur seal colony which is rapidly expanding. These animals can be observed at rest on the rocks or frolicking in the surf under Admirals Arch - a spectacular coastal grotto. On the headland above is Cape du Couedic Lighthouse which plays an important role in navigation. Further down the coast explore Remarkable Rocks, huge natural granite sculptures on the cliff top which look like a meeting of the minds of Henry Moore and Salvador Dali. Lunch today is an elegant picnic on the cliff tops or in the bush before heading east to Kelly Hill Conservation Park. Here a story of solitude and remote lifestyles sees former sheep pastures enjoyed by grazing kangaroos. Return to Kingscote in time to connect with the return flight to Adelaide.
